Torn's Speaker

Devi Ever has been building boutique guitar pedals by hand since 2003, creating some of the most sought-after fuzz tones used by artists like My Bloody Valentine, Nine Inch Nails, and Wilco.

The Torn's Speaker (also known as Torn's Peaker - a spoonerism) is a silicon-based fuzz that leans toward heavy overdrive territory. Where the Soda Meiser delivers smooth, large fuzz tones, Torn's Speaker is its crunchy equivalent - equally suited for metal as heavy classic rock. The circuit evokes the borderline-abrasive silicon fuzzes of the '70s and '80s.

Controls include Volume (with massive gain on tap to push amps into overdrive or boost leads) and Texture, which sweeps from clangy ice-pick highs to heavy bottom end. Known for wall-of-fuzz sustain that remains interactive with your guitar's volume control, dialing down to gritty crunch. An excellent addition to shoegaze, psych rock, or stoner metal rigs.
